Description
This and all material related to the Master of Magic series is copywritten by me. Unless otherwise mentioned or you have explicit permission from me, you cannot use anything related for any purpose.

At last, after much work, I can now present the first version of the Kruish runes that compose the written portion of the Kruish language. It isn't super pretty, but it gives everyone an idea of what they would look like. Obviously, as with English, there are different styles or "fonts" that can be employed and handwriting can be rather sloppy and unique, but this is the runes in their most basic, kindergarten form.

You can see the language in practical use here .

Some notes on the alphabet (more will come when I create the basic dictionary/grammar book):
The language, like English (but unlike Arabic or Asian languages), is read from left to right, top to bottom.
The Kruish runes are aligned from a top perspective meaning that, unlike English, "shorter" letters rest at the top, not the bottom.
There are eight vowels in the Kruish language (and "Y" is not one of them). This is mainly because, unlike English, they do not have long and short vowels.
All letters and numbers have at least one vertical line in them except vowels which have no vertical lines at all.
All letters and numbers stretch from the top of the "lines" to the bottom with the exception of vowels. Vowels are slightly shorter than the other letters or numbers and therefore don't quite stretch to the bottom of the line.
Since the runes are aligned at the top, periods and commas are at the top of the line rather than the bottom as is done in English. Apostrophes and quotation marks are also inverted and are on the bottom.
Numbers operate on a base 10 system as English does. They form their numbers just as we do in English with each digit one after another and with commas between groupings of a thousand, million, and billion (trillion is not a concept they have yet to grasp). I will provide names for those numbers in the dictionary.

I hope to have some visual artwork using these runes to give you an idea of how they look, so keep a lookout for them.
